HYDR370 Groundwater

Groundwater is the study of the storage and flow of water through the ground. We will learn how ground water fits into the hydrologic cycle, study interactions of surface and groundwater, and analyze the different properties of geological materials that are relevant to groundwater flow. Students will develop an understanding of the human impacts to groundwater quantity and quality. Investigations will employ conceptual models, mathematical equations, computer models, and field observations. Special attention will be paid to ground water issues in Indian Country.
